Completely redesigning your kitchen can be stressful and pricey. Opting for a few key changes that will breath new life into your kitchen rather than buying a new kitchen is easier than you may think. Read on to discover quick and easy ways to rejuvenate your kitchen.
- Paint Your Cabinets and Kitchen Door
An inexpensive way to spruce up a kitchen is to paint what your eyes see first in a kitchen; the cabinets and kitchen door. Overtime colour could have faded or peeled, so selecting a bright fresh colour like cream or pastels like mauve will make the space look larger. Additionally, choosing to remove cabinet doors all together and creating shelving helps to show off your collectables. Remember not to remove all of the cabinet doors, as it will make the kitchen look cluttered.
- Buy new handles and pulls
Changing knobs to pulls, or vice-versa, will add a unique quality to your kitchen. It is a great opportunity to place will brass or gold in your kitchen. Mixed metals are trending at the moment. It is cost effective, can be easily painted rather than bought to save money and can be easily done over the weekend. Avoid unusual handles that look cute but are not practical. You’ll love it in the moment, but wish you never bought it in a month’s time.
- Glass Splashback
This is the one item your kitchen should have. This space should be colourful to add character to your kitchen. The reflective nature creates a new dimension that can be noticed from a mile away. Glass splashback in particular, are easy to clean and are affordable. Some of most popular colours are cream, grey, blue or a reflective mirror look.
- Paint a feature wall
Don’t go all white, particularly in the kitchen, which is one of the most used and dirtiest parts of the house. Select cream or beige for a luxe look with silver features throughout the kitchen. Or, go for a deep colour like dark brown that will bring out a stone bench top.
- Mix and Match Contrasts
Give your kitchen a visual appeal that will wow when you entertain. Mixing beige, black or a bright colour to contrast with a stainless steel stove to create a visual journey to all those who gaze upon your kitchen. Easy ways to achieve mixing textures is to add a rug in front of the sink, decorate bench tops with a variety of appliances and add a funky wall decoration. This brightens and opens up the space.
